Maine's "Better late Than Never" August 2015 Thread!

Sorry I haven't been around too much folks, been super busy lately.

Hope you all are having a good summer, been incredibly nice lately, although way too hot for my taste!

Have a good day all!

I can honestly say I haven't been on a computer since Thursday last week. Spent literally every waking moment Fri/Sat/Sun doing chores.

On the bright side, I finally have both rooms in the basement finished, and the chickens are now outside in their new coop and newly re-fenced larger yard!

oh man,you sound just like my old man.he can't stand the humidity/heat either.he wont admit it but he loves it ice cold.if it's over 50F he's complaining lol.
ok sure,none of us like to be ringing wet from sweat but since the summers are short and the winters so long and cold,i just smile right though it with ease.i know there's always plenty of coolness coming latter.

How many chickens do you have and size of the coop and pen? We are at 7 now. 5 have died. They are 12-14 weeks old I think

I just hate the heat, I really do. Humidity just makes it worse. It's much easier to get warmer than cooler.

And yeah.... My temp is 60.... anything above that I start complaining, lol!

The inside is 4x6' with a 6' roost going across.

I currently have 29, we lost the rooster (AGAIN!) the first week, might have 1 or 2 more tho. The coop is well ventilated, and not overly crowded. MUCH better and more user-friendly design than my last one. And the yard is 24x24', and once they are full size we let them free-range.
